Bestselling southern author to visit Zebulon May 16

The J. Joel Edwards Public Library will host bestselling author Susan M. Boyer for a Books and Bites event Tuesday, May 16 at 5:30 p.m.

Her newest release, Big Trouble on Sullivan’s Island, is the engaging first book in the Carolina Tales series. Readers who like strong heroines, quirky sisterhoods and plenty of Southern charm are sure to love this wonderful whodunit, a novel about family and secrets and the lengths we’ll go to in order to protect both.

Boyer is the author of the USA TODAY bestselling Liz Talbot mystery series.

She was blessed with a quintessential small-town childhood and has had a life-long love affair with books. Susan is grateful to have been gifted with an over-active imagination. She was one of those children whose teachers were always telling her mamma that her talents needed to be “channeled.” She’s been making things up and writing them down her whole life.

She loves beaches, Southern food and small towns where everyone knows everyone, and everyone has crazy relatives – and all of the above will be found in her novels. She lives in North Carolina with her husband and an inordinate number of houseplants.

Books will be available for purchase at the event, which is free and open to the public.
